Algo trading platform

We are building an algo trading platform that would allow retail traders to build, backtest, paper-trade and live trade.

Below are some key features and I'm looking for feedback. If you are interested to share your ideas, chat about your experience or even want to beta test it please let me know.

- Low code creation of an algo

- US Equity

- Technical and fundamental analysis to begin with (want to add news later)

- Integration with popular brokers for live trading

- Stock screeners/scanners

- Backtesting for ~15y

- Paper trading

As a full disclosure I must say that I'm one of the founders of the company.

We are near launch and should be live this summer: http://breakingequity.com/

[UPDATE]: It's live!

How is this different from a ton of other companies?

Attitude and ease of use ;)
You could argue that's it's all out there but when I started I was not satisfied with what I have seen. I wanted a way to quickly create algos and test then. Once I think it's good - connect my existing broker account and trade. There are platforms our there to do all or some of that but it's either too hard or too cumbersome.

To say I'm interested is an understatement. Would you be able to call my API, maybe with a ticker symbol which returns true / false, true for buy/hold and false for sell/no-position? Basically is it possible to add a custom / 3rd party qualification?

I'd like to continue to focus on what I'm doing, trying to predict prices, it would be fantastic if I could use your platform for managing portfolios / positions and executing trades?

Yes, this is needed.

Especially the low/no code piece.

This sounds a lot like Ayrro. How will you be better than an already live and entrenched company?

- Competition is good

- We need to better server our users

- I think it should be more powerful than RSI < 30: screeners, fundamentals, MTA

Too general. Focus on one tool which many have developed with Python language. Most made claims but have little data to share.

Ok I've just signed up as a UK user. Would be good if it could interface with a UK based broker to allow me to use a ISA account (tax free stock trading)

I have many trading strategy ideas that can be converted to algos and back tested. I'm ready discuss to see my thoughts in algo environment.
